Steps to moose hunting (once you are legal to do so):
1. Find moose to shoot. This is the fun/frustrating part.
2. Shoot moose.
(Possibly re-find moose..... )
3. Dress/ "recover" moose. This is the "work" part.
My last moose was 3 seasons ago - a Noatak River 3 year old. Not a particularly difficult #3, and a danged good no-pressure hunt. I eased the Achilles ashore 30 yards from my apartment an hour before the snowstorm hit. The lagoon was frozen over the next morning. That makes a guy feel warm all over.... a rubber boat just doesn't make a good ice-breaker.
Photo-bucket ain't cooperating tonight.... but I've posted the pics before, anyway.
The caribou have been cooperating since - they are much easier to deal with.....
